Happy New Year and best wishes for 2009

Hi all again.

Already January is rolling on way too fast. I hope that everyone had a great New Year's Eve and that you are poised for a wonderful 2009.

Since the last post, not too much has been happening. We enjoyed our time in Sydney and Annelise & I made the most of the good weather and beach with swims in the mornings and late afternoons.

New Year's Eve was a quiet one for us. We had a friend visit but only just made it to see the fireworks at midnight (asleep by 12:16am). I was even down at Bunnings around 9:30am the next morning, shows what an old codger I am becoming when I'm even awake that time on New Year's Day, let alone at Bunnings.

Since then the kids have had a few nights down at Mollymook visiting my parents and we took advantage of the situation and had a dinner out at a nice Italian restaurant.

Kids are now home and just doing holiday things like visiting friends etc., while we put up with some warm weather, 36 degrees or so for yesterday, today and forecast for tomorrow. Must say, it's not so bad being stuck in an office working when the temperature is so warm.

For me, work is back on but it feels like I only just left. It's tough getting up and motivated in the morning but then, you have to do what you have to do.

Ali is doing well, and as mentioned in the previous blog, we are moving ahead with the SIR-sphere treatment with further tests due later this month.

Stay well and I'm planning to post some recent pictures soon.
